Cooking and catching up

Lastnight I decided to get my rear in gear and start stocking my freezer again. I ended up making some homemade apple sauce (so easy and good) in the crock pot and chicken with homemade stock for chicken and noodles. I was so mad after I made the first batch of stock because after the work of cooking the chicken and taking the skin off and removing the bones (and I always burn myself when I do that), I knocked the container over all into my stove top and lost everything. I decide to not let the chicken go to waste, so I put it in a freezer bag and labeled it "Dog Chicken." I figure they won't notice if it has all over the counter/stove or not. So, I started again and made 2 more batches. Thankfully, they made it to the freezer without a catastrophe. Now, whenever I want chicken and noodles I can just make the noodles, thaw out my stock, and have a delicious dinner.

Tonight, I went to "Eat and Drink for Pink." Ever year, AMWA hosts this event to raise money for breast cancer research. This year and last year were at Fat Patty's. I mean, if you have to twist my arm, I guess I'll go to Fat Patty's. Its a good cause and all. ;) Thankfully, I got to catch up wwith a few of my friends while enjoying my beer and wrap. Unfortunately, now I'm stuffed but, again, it was for a good cause!
